Yesterday. It had been working fine most of the day. I logged out of
Gnome and logged back in and it stopped working.

Nope. I'm using Gnome 2.6 which did away with ACME and integrated it
into the Keyboard Shortcuts.

See above. 2.6 from experimental (not from sid)

Here's the full output:

alex@Balrog:~/.xmms$ xmms

Segmentation fault

You've probably found a bug in XMMS, please visit
http://bugs.xmms.org and fill out a bug report.

alex@Balrog:~/.xmms$

I did a ulimit -c unlimited, but XMMS isn't producing a core dump.
ulimit -a shows the limits as unlimited, but there's still no core.
Doing a ltrace xmms 2>/dev/null produces a core dump, but I'm not really
sure if it's an ltrace core dump or a xmms core dump. Here's the output
from gdb.
